The History:
The Battling Bishops are a perennial powerhouse in Division III soccer and have built a strong tradition here at NC Wesleyan. Since 1964, the team has accumulated nearly 300 wins. Other accolades include four USA South/Dixie Conference Championships, five NCAA appearances, five All-Americans and countless All-South players.

The Facilities:
Wesleyan's soccer facilities at Scalf Field are world class. We have a beautiful Bermuda grass match pitch which measures 120 x 80, and is considered one of the finest playing surfaces on the east coast. We also have several practice fields, as well as extensive weight training facilities. The Carolina weather affords us the luxury of being able to train outdoors year round. Currently a plan is under way to light both the match facility and our training facilities, including the new construction of another practice field.

The Schedule:
The NC Wesleyan Men's Soccer Team plays the maximum 21 week schedule allowed by the NCAA. During our traditional fall season, we consistently play top opponents from Divisions I, II and III. Past and present opponents include Campbell, Duke, Liberty, East Carolina, Emory, Greensboro, Methodist, VA Wesleyan, Mary Washington, Maryville, Hampden Sydney, and Bethany. NC Wesleyan is a member of the prestigious USA South Athletic Conference, and we host our own two-day tournament every September. We also play a very strong Spring schedule against many local rivals such as Barton, Mt. Olive, and Duke University.

This program is year round and very demanding both physically and mentally. It is built around serious student-athletes who have the drive to train, compete and weight train year round. We are constantly pursuing a National Championship!
